Using Windows Image Backup on WD external drive

Can I use Windows 7 image backup to place an image of hard drive on the WD drive? If so, does that wipe out everything on the WD drive? I also seem to recall somewhere that you cannot use the Image Backup with drives larger than a certain size. My WD Ultra is 3T.

Hello,

Im not sure what the limitations are and for that reason I recommend you contact WD support or wait to see if another user has experience and can share some ideas with us.
